"Port" isn't the term I would use: what would probably be needed is a
wrapper. That being said, I dunno anyone working on one, though I
would also love to have one. (It does have Emacs keysets--see

Windows>Preferences>Workbench>Keys>Keyboard Shortcuts
Active Configuration=<Emacs|Emacs 3.0>

but that's not enough !-)

Not particularly, but 2 things come to mind:

* Eclipse can run any COM object in a page (== <view|editor>), so a
  COM wrapper would work

* There is a vi plugin

http://sourceforge.net/projects/viplugin/

  so one might look at how they do what they do.
